Heart Of Texas Lyrics

Verse 1:

The heart of Texas is where i was born

By twist of fate the lonestar state's where i'm coming
from God almighty's been good to me

Verse 2:
Where i grow'd up learning about the Alamo
With a swelling pride down deep inside me saying go man
go
You can be all you want to be

Yeah it's right there where the best is
Smack dab in the heart of Texas,thank you Mam

Verse 3:
Papa run off before i was born
Mama picked cotton just to raise us kids in the Texas
sun
We grew up in the cotton fields

Verse 4:(Waylon,Billy Joe)

So i learned how to work and i learned how to fight

I learned how to put a bunch of words together as the
years rolled by
God gave me a way to go

Verse 5:(Waylon,Billy Joe)

When my sweetheart listened to the songs i played She said i love you honey,but there ain't much money in
a serenade
I need a man with a real job

Bridge:(Waylon,Billy Joe)
Now she's back there where i left her
God knows i still think about her now and then
But she knows these clothes i'm wearin'

Is the kind that shirt tails always flappin' in the
wind

Verse 6:
I made my music from coast to coast
Been over the water,couldn't get no hotter then i dang
near froze
Remember the Alamo

Verse 7:
The road was long but the heart is strong

I was Texas born and raised and Texas is still my home

Texas is home sweet home

Bridge2:(Billy Joe,Waylon)
Where my songs are always playing
And them good ol' Texas gals say honey "now where ya
been?"
